Synopsis
This volume tells the story of how generation follows generation in the animal world - from how tiny eggs beneath a nettle leaf become butterflies, to how a young chimpanzee learns his manners and how to make his own bed. Illustrated throughout with colour photographs and explanatory artwork, the text froms a continuous narrative, building in logical progression from basic principles upwards. Case studies, parallel stories, and fascinating "did you know?" items also form full or half-page boxed features punctuating the main themes, allowing them to be read in context or picked up later while browsing. No prior knowledge of biology is assumed, and where technical or scientific terms are unavoidable they are fully and clearly explained. With its survey of a whole spectrum of biological inventiveness, several levels of learning. It can be used as an introduction to reproductive biology and natural history, as a source book of information for school homework questions and projects, as a source of answers to the "how? - why? - when? - where?" questions that are part of life in a growing family, and also as a browsing book full of colour, interest, and surprising facts.
